This game is $#@!ing sweet! The controls are so tight and responsive, I love it. The gameplay and framerate is super smooth too.. I'm impressed! The bots are $#@!ing hard though. Can't wait till the server situation is sorted

This game is pretty awesome so far. Only played against the bots since the servers suck. It seems so chaotic but i know exactly what's going on. All the controls are responsive but I'm not crazy about the control layout. All in all just plain fun. As another poster said tho, its not quite like the old school ones but not really sure why

Downloading right now. A bit nervous about these early impressions that I've read, but guess I'll have to wait til it downloads so I can try it. Hopefully it lives up to expectations for me. Question: I know that it's supposed to come with a voucher for TM: Black. Is that releasing on PSN the same day?

very good that there making ai improvments. the difficulty is good i like it but they need to make the ai smarter. bin playin around in Challenge mode and they dont pick up medkits and its very easy to trap them hehe. cant wait to try nuke and the helicopter is just not fair it can screw some stuff up.

this game/demo is crap... i cant believe how much people have been hyped about it. Its a braindead button masher with no polish (yeah its a demo but its not going to look much better in final release)Its A pick up and play for 5 or 10 minutes before getting bored kinda game. Jaffe severely disappoints this gen in gaming... hes done jack $#@!. seriously... calling all cars and this?... this game is going to feel like an oversized playstation network title (since it was originally planned as one) with an SP campaign tacked on

In all honesty this is a 10-15$ PSN title at BEST... but at full price retail, (or full price PSN download) thats absolutely retarded

Unfortunately this is exactly what I was expecting. I have a feeling we're going to see this game drop to the $20 mark if not less before summer.

I was expecting an overwhelming response of love for this considering the hype surrounding this game. Will definitely have to try this out to see what I think from the mixed emotions I'm seeing. Although I wasn't very hyped for this to begin with.

LOL Haters gonna hate! Twisted Metal is AWESOME!! Soooo badass. Anyone who was into the original Twisted Metal is probably gonna love this. This is a niche game, like Demon's Souls, it's not for everyone, but the demo is $#@!ing great!

I was INSTANTLY taken back to the PS era, it felt very nostalgic, then looks great and plays great to boot. A shining gem in Sonys catalog, for those with eyes to see it.

did you play the old ones?

Let's be honest: You sleep with anything that walks on two legs. Sometimes, you're not even that discriminating

LOL button masher? No wonder you don't like it, you're doing it wrong. This game is a big nod to old school fans, which I'*m guessing you are not, as the original TM games you would have found just as "button mashingly crap".

Having been an avid fan of the originals I've been eagerly anticipating this game's release. When I saw a few of the first reviews in here I became very worried but I held on to a little faith and downloaded the demo. Now that I've played it I have to say THIS GAME IS WORTH EVERY OUNCE OF ANTICIPATION I'VE BEEN FEELING!!

Lightening fast and completely psychotic action that looks clean and spectacular and very tight and responsive play control! Even just going through the training I was laughing out loud and getting into it! The soundtrack is brilliantly fit to the game's style and keeps a grin on my face the whole time I'm playing. There's definitely a learning curve just like there was with the old ones but once you begin to think and react up to speed with the game you'll do fine.

I didn't get a chance to play the multiplayer at all so I can't respond to the concerns about that but the single player was a carnival of carnage. I still lament that they moved away from the story lines of the individual drivers fighting the twisted metal contest to make a deal with Calypso but the action is so good I'll get over it.

Great fun!

I agree with this. Also, Jaffe said that in the old games, you never really got any character development or story telling, just a bit at the start and then the end cinematic. He decided to focus on 3 characters to be able to tell a better story for them. I'm just glad the variety of cars is there. TOP game in the works.

Wow, one hour with the demo and people are ready to run back to Modern Warfare 3? Too much of this forum doesn't seem to enjoy the act of gaming unless it's a AAA sequel for my tastes. As a fan of Twisted Metal Black I'm excited by the demo. It's big, chaotic and full of destruction (just like TMB). It's hard and the bots tend to gang up on you (just like TMB). The graphics aren't the greatest, but the number of projectiles slamming into your vehicle simultaneously helps make up for it (just like TMB). This is not a bad demo or a bad game, from what I've experienced so far. Yes, some people will always dislike any given game, but I just see a suspicious amount of 'cool' negative $#@!ing about less-trendy games instead of reasoned complaints recently.
